Ethnicity & Mental Health Improvement Programme

The Ethnicity & Mental Health Improvement Programme (EMHIP) is a pioneering initiative, dedicated to providing emotional wellness and support that truly understands and respects the needs of Black and Asian Minority Ethnic communities.

We know that everyone faces challenges in life. EMHIP was created to provide a safe, supportive space where your personal well-being is our priority. We do our best to tackle any barriers to your happiness so that you can have peace of mind.

Our approach is rooted in cultural sensitivity, making sure that the assistance you receive feels right for you. By offering tailored support that respects and understands diverse cultural backgrounds, we ensure that every individual receives the care they need, enhancing their outlook on life in a way that resonates with their unique experiences.

We are dedicated to helping you or your loved ones navigate life's ups and downs with care and understanding. Our services are designed by and for people who recognise the unique experiences of Black and Asian communities. You’re not alone. Our team is here to help you every step of the way.

  • Life can be overwhelming at times, and everyone can benefit from support. Mainstream services often overlook the cultural and social factors that play a huge role in well-being. EMHIP is different. We provide care that not only acknowledges your background but also honors it, so you can feel confident that you are receiving personalised support from professionals who truly understand your situation.

    At EMHIP, paying attention to your well-being is seen as an act of strength. Our community focused approach ensures that you receive support in a respectful, confidential environment where your cultural values are at the forefront. We’re here to show that taking care of your emotional wellness can be a positive step towards a healthier, happier life.
